What's Next for SASEUL? One Writer's Outlook and Worries (Personal Opinion)

· Updated · Holder guide

SASEUL: how does the writer see it?

I think it'll rise over the long run. This is one person's opinion and it could be wrong

A coin you only get by mining

Proof of work, and less comes out over time

A ledger running for over 4 years

It has stopped and come back before

Worries

Slow development, no exchange to trade on

This is one writer's view and not investment advice. The factual parts were checked against the official ledger site and official notices on September 30, 2026.

This is one writer's view and not investment advice. It could be wrong.

I think SASEUL coin (SL) will keep going up in price over the long run. I don't have a number for when or how much.

Below, "confirmed fact" means something with a source, and "what I think" is my own opinion. For what SASEUL is, see the basic facts page.

Why do I think it'll rise?

What I think: the biggest reason is that SASEUL is a coin you only get by mining.

Here's the confirmed fact. SASEUL runs on proof of work (you have to solve a hard problem with a computer to get new coins). The official docs say so, and they say SL can only be obtained by mining. According to the project profile, nothing was presold or set aside for the team.

The amount of new coins goes down over time. Each cut makes it 27/32 of what it was, so after four cuts it's close to half. When a cut happens is set by how much has come out so far, not by the calendar (see the mining rewards post). The official ledger site (explorer.saseul.com) expects the next cut on January 12, 2027. In total, about 5.5 billion will come out over 100 years. At 12:59 p.m. on September 30, 2026, the amount issued so far was 3,477,759,957.

What I think: coins only appear when someone puts in electricity and computing, and the amount of new coins keeps shrinking. I think a setup like this helps the price over the long run. But even if fewer coins come out, the price won't go up if nobody wants them. That's why you have to look at the worries below as well.

What does high difficulty mean?

It means the people mining are putting in that much computing power. Difficulty is a number that shows how many calculations it takes, on average, to find one page of the ledger.

At the same time, difficulty on the official ledger site was 274.17T. That means about 301 trillion calculations to find one page. On May 16, 2024, it was about 8.8 billion. So in 2 years and 4 months it grew about 34,000 times. Three days earlier, on September 27, it was about 47,000 times, so difficulty went down in between. How to read the number is in the difficulty explainer.

What I think: it's a good sign that this much computing power is coming in even now, when you can't trade on an exchange. I read it as miners thinking it's worth paying for the electricity.

There's an opposite fact too. The total computing speed dropped from about 9.88 TH/s on September 15 to about 5.02 TH/s on September 30, nearly half in two weeks. I don't know if it'll keep dropping.

Is the ledger still running?

Yes. SASEUL has been running since May 17, 2022 (Korea time). At 12:59 p.m. on September 30, 2026, the official ledger site showed 4,420,050 pages in the transaction ledger and 2,328,034 pages in the mining ledger. New pages have kept being added for more than 4 years.

Transactions also lock in fairly fast. How long it takes to reach finality (when a record locks in and can't be reversed) depends on the source. The official docs say 6 to 8 seconds. The CoinMarketCap project profile says about 4 seconds to process and about 600 seconds to lock in.

What I think: if it locks in anywhere from a few seconds to 10 minutes, that's fast enough for things like paying at a shop.

Has it ever stopped or had problems?

Yes. And it got fixed and came back. Here's what the official notices and ledger records confirm.

Date What happened After
July 3 to 6, 2022 Only 2 mining ledger pages added in about 73 hours Pages started piling up again on the morning of July 6
July 19, 2023 A difficulty calculation bug briefly raised the amount mined (notice #49) Fixed with a big update (#50)
Evening of June 14, 2026 Some computers couldn't make transaction ledger pages (#78) Version 2.2.0.4 released early the next morning (#79)
July 28, 2026 2.2.0.5 fixed faster recovery from a split ledger (#82) The notice called it a "stability fix"

The notice doesn't say when the June problem was fully resolved, so I don't know. The detailed record is in the block stall check post.

What I think: the track record of stopping and coming back is itself a strength. It's not that there were no problems. It's a ledger that kept going by fixing them when they came up.

What is it used for?

Not much yet. But public sources do confirm a few things.

There are a few more services that use the SASEUL ledger. I couldn't find any notice saying the official team made them, and I couldn't confirm from public sources who runs them. This is what I saw when I opened them myself on September 30, 2026.

Other uses are in the SASEUL coin uses post.

What I think: the uses are small for now, but base features like NFTs and login are already in. If services get built on top of them, I think more people will want SL.

Is development still going?

The confirmed facts say yes. Version 2.2.0.5 came out on July 28, 2026 (notice #82, and the Docker Hub record has the same date). The notice said the focus now is the next big update, 2.3. The developer docs on the official GitHub were also updated on March 9, 2026.

What I think: it's a good sign that the team hasn't walked away even after 4 years.

What are the worries?

Development is slow. In a September 22, 2025 notice (#68), the big update was supposed to be done within September if possible. After that it was pushed back several times, to January 15, 19 and 25, then February 3, 2026. The first files came out on February 13 (#73). As of September 30, there's no date announced for 2.3. In a January 19 notice (#71), the SASEUL team itself wrote that calling SASEUL unstable wouldn't be entirely wrong.

Public sources don't say how many developers there are. The big update's schedule slipped several times (notices #68 to #73). My guess is they're short on hands.

It's not well known. On September 30, 2026, the official SASEUL notice channel had 662 subscribers. What I think: there's almost no promotion, so very few people even know about SASEUL.

There's no exchange to trade on right now. It got listed on the overseas exchange BitMart on May 9, 2025, but BitMart stopped all trading from August 26, 2026 (see the BitMart closure post). Right now it looks like some people buy and sell directly with each other for KRW, without an exchange. It's not something the official team has pointed people to, and since these are deals between individuals, be careful (scam warning post). With few places to trade, it's hard to set a price and hard to sell when you want to.

Watch out for hype too. In a September 22, 2025 notice (#68), the SASEUL team said many people lost money because of wrong information and hype around the big update. Lines like "it'll go up once the update is done" are not official announcements (see the hard fork post).

Real use is still small. In a December 31, 2025 notice (#69), the SASEUL team wrote that apart from a few overseas research groups, even basic connections were hard to make.

So what's the writer's conclusion?

What I think leans toward "it'll rise over the long run." I say that because of the mining-only supply, a ledger that's kept going for over 4 years, the high difficulty and the record of stopping and coming back.

Still, if even one of the worries above stays unsolved for a long time, I could be wrong. In particular, if places to trade and real uses don't grow, a good structure alone won't be enough. Whether to buy or sell is your own call, and this post doesn't make that call for you.
